| Description | If you edit the Admin Zone home page with WYSIWYG on, it'll be re-saved in semihtml. However, the RSS block uses a URL to specify news to load containing ampersands, and this will have been entity-escaped. We need to therefore unentity-escape the block parameters. This generalises to all symbols. This is consistent with re-editing with WYSIWYG, where literal parameters would be edited with entity-encoding transparent to the user. It does have the implication (trade off) that users hand-coding semihtml with block symbols will need to potentially double-escape any code that needs escaping. This is a very rare situation though. Directives and language references are left untouched, as it is more likely users of this will want to have literal escaping as pass-through, plus there is no known real-world bug to be solved. |
